2 Corinthians12:16

Verſe 16. Being crafty I caught] A bleſſed craft, a high point of heavenly wiſdome, Dan. 12, 3. It is written of the fox, that when he is very hungry after prey, and can finde none, he lieth down and faineth himſelf to be a dead carcaſe, and ſo the fowls fall upon him, and then he catcheth them. Saint Paul hungering after the ſouls-health of his Corinthians, denies himſelf to gain them.
